An informed source told a local Arabic daily that the Municipality stipulated, in its report, which will be referred to the Municipal Council, that the offices of small and medium-sized companies be for companies working in the field of information and communications technology, which is the purpose of the project, and that they do not issue commercial licenses to stores, and that the percentage of complementary commercial activities such as “restaurant” should not exceed 5% of the project area, provided that the restaurant, cafes and banks are served from the inside so as not to cause traffic congestion.
